ZenMate VPN: What Happened and CyberGhost Alternatives

Zenmate vpn: what happened and cyberghost alternatives

ZenMate stopped new subscriptions on 16 March 2023, and support for its original desktop and mobile apps ended on 1 May 2023. Its official migration announcement directed eligible existing subscribers to CyberGhost applications.

What happened to ZenMate VPN?

A legacy ZenMate account, an installed browser extension and a current CyberGhost subscription are different things. Old ZenMate sign-up, trial and app-download offers should not guide a new purchase.

What existing customers should do

Existing subscribers should check their entitlement before paying for another subscription. Our ZenMate account guide explains the account-access distinction. For a new purchase, compare the current CyberGhost product and its terms.

Alternatives to consider

For a new VPN subscription, read our CyberGhost review and compare its device support, renewal cost and privacy features. A VPN does not replace parental controls or an antivirus application.
